Unshed Tears

I wept now, for the tears
that were never shed

Tears blocked by anger
and distant misunderstandings

An eternity passes in a moment
when a heart stops

I watch a loved ones face as grief
consumes it, and what mattered
moments ago is meaningless

Yet, tomorrow there may be another tear that is not shed,for vain reasons

I pray for good sense to overcome egoism a deeper understanding of others reasoning

Life without tears is as stagnant as
a dry well

etw-2006

What a powerful line

I wept now, for the tears
that were never shed

That is concentrated contol of emotions..........and when the damn bursts............its a rapid of emotions..........

the release is healthy............

but this is beyond release.........this is reason.......and wisdom

bravo..........

You are my sunshine , you are my sunshine, you make me happy, when tears come my way, to know their only, hurts forgotten, is to really be free, of my, past pain, today!

Tears are a release when anxiety or sadness is extreme. It's the body getting rid of stress in a way it understands although we don't , most times. I prefer tears of joy and I'm one who will cry, quietly and go unnoticed for the most part. Tears are a good thing too but the ones we hold onto for lack of conditioning get rusted over the years.
Your poem is a sad way of dealing with this subject Sis. Something I can do?

Love and harmony!
